I love indie games, and if I can help them get more attention, I will. Content creator. Contact: [email protected]
Alruna: End of History is a very unique metroidvania. There's a contrast between our protagonist and the world around him that really makes you feel what the game is aiming for. I never played the first one, but I think I should take a look at it

You can't miss the Kero Quest 64 demo. It's one of the platformers I'm most excited for in 2026. The gameplay is great, the abilities feel incredibly polished and combining them lets you reach almost anywhere. It's really fun

The amount of time and effort it must take to achieve Barraka's visual style has to be extraordinary. Add it to your wishlist on your platform of choice. Luckily, it's coming to all of them. We just don't know when yet haha

SOULGRAVE is one of those games where the more gameplay and characters I see, the more I want to play it. I also like that the developer is very active on social media, though I hope it doesn't take too much time away from development haha

Listen to people's feedback it's important, even when it's negative. Digital Sun has handled this well with Moonlighter 2. Early Access is tough, and fixing player concerns is even tougher. They've done great work before, so don't be too hard on them haha

D-Pad Studio has some of the best pixel art I've seen in the industry. Sometimes in Owlboy I would just stop and stare at the scenery without playing at all haha. I hope that doesn't happen to me in Vikings on Trampolines or I'm going to lose matches

Give your favorite developers a bit more visibility by adding their games to your wishlist. It's one of the most important metrics that can help define a game's success

Taste of Heaven is a cooking game that's very different from anything you've probably played. It’s an RPG with roguelite elements set in a world of spirits and gods. Food is culture, and this game captures that beautifully. Try the demo now!

The Go Slimey Go! demo really won me over. The level design has a great foundation, and everything feels very varied despite having only a few mechanics. Add to that some great music and pixel art, and it becomes genuinely fun

Try to build the tallest tower you can and uncover the mysteries of the sky. Your materials aren't infinite, but if you build in the right way, you might earn more. The Cloudscrapers demo has such a simple concept, yet it's executed so well that I loved it

The Lelu demo is finally out! I'm sure fans of games like Zelda will love it. In this adventure, you play as a little clockwork toy that has gained consciousness and must navigate the toy factory while overcoming various obstacles

I don't usually play a lot of co-op games, but playing as a puppy in a horror game with a friend sounds like a total blast. Haunted Paws has a really promising concept. I really hope they succeed, because making online games is tough

CannonHead is still in a pretty early stage of development, but I already love everything the developer has shown. I really like how the gameplay fits so well with that 1930s cartoon aesthetic

Spooky Doorway has made an impressive leap from their Dark Detective series to The Séance of Blake Manor. I have no idea what they'll make next, but if their future games are as good as this one, they're definitely going to get the recognition they deserve

Valdis Story: Abyssal City was one of the first indie games that proved you don't need a big name to create a gem. Endlessfluff Games showed the same talent with Fae Tactics. I'm not sure why they changed their name, but their skill is still clear

Combining Suika Game mechanics with deck-building is a winning combo. But the best part of Dogpile? It's packed with cute dogs. You don't need anything else. Try the demo now!

The Hope Timbre demo felt brilliant to me. It takes the complexity of puzzle games into a comfortable space, where the art and music guide you naturally. Making something this polished look simple just shows there's very experienced talent behind it

Hellbound Inc puts you right into the horrors of hell as a delivery messenger. Your path to deliver the packages won't be easy, there are traps, puzzles, and, hardest of all, a Jump King style platforming system. Try not to lose your mind in this demo

There's always something charming about looking at the world in miniature, and Elusive is the perfect game for that kind of experience. We don't have a release date yet, but as I always say, art takes time, haha

There are many creative people in the world of game development, but what Daniel Mullins Games does is on another, almost incomprehensible level. Maybe we're more familiar with it now, but back then, Pony Island could really make you question your own computer, haha

Developers are constantly fighting for visibility, and algorithms don't help much. But hey, you can help in a really simple way. Add their games to your wishlist, it's like giving them a like on social media

Don't bet your soul playing blackjack in real life. Better try the demo of Black Jacket and risk it digitally in this roguelite deck-builder. It's even set in hell for extra realism. Jokes aside, it's a really fun demo with more strategy than it first seems
